Gee Mom, I Wanna Go Home




The biscuits in the army, they say are mighty fine,
but one rolled off the table and killed a friend of mine.
Oh, I don't want no more of army life.
Gee mom, I wanna go - Hey, mom, I gotta go -
Gee mom, I wanna go home.

The coffee in the army, they say is mighty fine,
It looks like mud and water, and tastes like iodine.

Oh, I don't want no more of army life.
Gee mom, I wanna go - Hey, mom, I gotta go -
Gee mom, I wanna go home.


The chicken in the army, they say is mighty fine,
But once, 2 drums just got up and started beating time.
Oh, I don't want no more of army life.
Gee mom, I wanna go - Hey, mom, I gotta go -
Gee mom, I wanna go home.


The uniforms they give us, they say are mighty fine,
But me and my best buddy can both fit into mine.
Oh, I don't want no more of army life.
Gee mom, I wanna go - Hey, mom, I gotta go -
Gee mom, I wanna go home.


The boots that they give us, they say are mighty fine,
I wear a size 11, they gave me number 9.
Oh, I don't want no more of army life.
Gee mom, I wanna go - Hey, mom, I gotta go -
Gee mom, I wanna go home.
